We show that the neutrino mass matrix with the minimal texture leads to the neutrino mass and mixing that are empirically determined, including $\theta_{13}$ that is measured recently at a high precision. This mass matrix, where the…

We suggest an approach to explain the observed pattern of the neutrino masses and mixing which employs the weakly broken quark-lepton symmetry and does not require introduction of an ad hoc symmetry of the neutrino sector. The mass matrices…

We estimate the PMNS (Pontecorvo-Maki-Nakagawa-Sakata) matrix in terms of neutrino and charged lepton mixing given as $U_{\rm PMNS}=V_{\rm lep}^\dagger(\tilde\theta_{13}) U_\nu(\tilde\theta_{23}, \tilde\theta_{12})$, based on a new…

We propose a model which uses the seesaw mechanism and the lepton number $\bar L = L_e - L_\mu - L_\tau$ to achieve the neutrino mass spectrum $m_1 = m_2$ and $m_3 = 0$, together with a lepton mixing matrix $U$ with $U_{e3} = 0$. In this…

Stimulated by a successful quark mass matrix model based on U(3)$\times$U(3)$'$ family symmetry, a phenomenological neutrino mass matrix for the Majorana neutrinos $(\nu_L, \nu_R^c, N_L, N_R^c)$ is proposed. The model has only three…

Neutrino mass sum-rule is a very important research subject from theoretical side because neutrino oscillation experiment only gave us two squared-mass differences and three mixing angles. We review neutrino mass sum-rule in literature that…
